This headband is in a round on circular needles so there are no seams which means you get to enjoy the knitting more with minimal finishing afterwards. The Fair Isle pattern is completed with two colors following a chart. Although combining a Fair Isle pattern with knitting in the round may sound complicated, I find it’s easier since I don’t get mixed up on the wrong side stitches.

I used two strands of DK yarn for this pattern. This can end in a tangled mess, but in the process, you get a beautiful product! You can also use a chunkier yarn with the same gauge for the same results.
